Our bartender L was awesome - she made excellent drinks and was super friendly. Between the cafe drinks and the cocktails, these had to be some of the best drinks I've had. The Pandan Matcha Cloud was sweet and had that perfect matcha flavor, the beetroot cacao latte was almost like a non-sweet but non-bitter hot cocoa. You could tell the mixers and syrups used in the cocktails were really fresh and house made. Very clean and chic aesthetic without being stuffy. I will definitely be back. I'd be frequenting this place if it were closer to where I live. read more

My experience at this location was awesome, the service was warm and welcoming, the drinks were good and the ambiance is cozy. I'm digging their patio, it's spacious and there's an area where you can play some beer pong and corn-hole. Parking can be challenging during a rush but when it's dead there's plenty of spots for you to park. I came here for my friend's birthday & the staff took good care of us. I decided to order 3 drinks. I got the hidden treasure, Pandan-lada & Wildfire. My favorite one was the hidden treasure, it was sweet, silky, smooth and had a lovely coconut taste to it. It wasn't the strongest but it'll definitely catch up to you after 3 of them. It's also not on the menu hints the name "hidden". The pandan-lada was a little too sweet for my liking but it had that floral taste from the pandan. The wildfire was the strongest out of the 3, but the drink was a bit too harsh for my liking due to the fact that it was very spicy. I love spicy but not so much in my drinks. Overall, it was a great experience. The service is what gave it a 5. The bartender and the manager were the coolest people on earth. They really put time and effort into making these drinks & visually it looks good too. They also serve beers as well, but shockingly I thought it'll be more to pick from. Will I come back? Yes, next time I'll try out their coffees/lattes. read more

Came over here for a friend's birthday and I must say, I felt like the place was just ours! It's a cute little spot that I hadn't been to before, and it was just enough space. There is a parking lot available but also you know how the parking is if you come to this area, so may want to uber as well! The staff were such a delight. I don't know if this was a newer spot or not, but they happily answered questions on the drinks menu, and offered suggestions, and genuinely had great personalities, you can tell they like what they do, and they do a great job at it! The drinks were drinking! The few that I ordered tasted delicious. They had a great amount of seating as well, as with us being a larger party, they had a large high top that sat a good portion of us, and then some smaller tables spread around. There's some room for standing only, and you also order your drinks directly from the bar. Cool vibe of a spot and can definitely see myself coming back! read more

Very cute coffee shop with bites to eat as well. Cozy inside with booths, high tops and tables and bar seating which is cool. There is tons of outdoor seating wrapped around the building. I'd it were a warmer day when I patronized 8 would have sat outdoors. I'd def go back. Chill vibe and the crowds did pick up as the day went on. read more

I recently celebrated my birthday at Botanic Beer Garden, one of my new favorite bars in the city! I couldn't have asked for a better place to host my party with a group of 30+, including a theme and folks dressed up in costumes. I'm really glad this place popped up within the last few months. Drinks are stellar, the bar menu is creative, and you can tell that lots of thought was put into creating each item. My favorites are the Pandan-lada, Blueberry Buzz, and Eternal Bloom. I don't know of any other place that makes a cocktail with pandan, so not only is this unique, it actually tastes really good. The pandan flavor is strong and subsequently, you can barely taste the alcohol in it. Similar story with the Blueberry Buzz: I don't care for gin, but the gin taste in this one is so subtle that you can barely taste it. And the Eternal Bloom is a good take on a tiki-style drink with rum and tropical flavors - can't go wrong here. In a way, these drinks are dangerous as you can barely taste the alcohol, so you will keep coming back for more. While they currently do not serve food, they are in the process of getting permit approval for an onsite food truck. They currently serve $1 tacos on Thursdays though, so do take advantage of this if you happen to be here for Thirsty Thursday. I can attest to the good quality of said tacos. Since they don't yet serve food, you are able to bring in any food of your choice; I am not sure if this will change once the food truck is up and running. They also have a full coffee bar, so if you need a pick-me-up to make it through the rest of the night or just a coffee-laden cocktail, you can get your caffeine fix here. Seating is plentiful, with several booths and tables inside and many picnic tables in their outdoor, fan-cooled patio with TV's. Inside they have a variety of board games you can play, and the patio features outdoor games like Jenga and cornhole too. The bar manager, Santi, is fantastic. On my first visit prior to the party, he gave me a full overview of the bar and his thought process on crafting the menu together. All of the syrups are made from scratch and natural ingredients are used in favor of artificial flavorings. They are also happy to customize and make drinks that aren't on the menu (like a carajillo - I may have had more than one of these across multiple visits). Santi is very pleasant to talk to and was great to work with in planning my event. He even brought in additional bartenders to help manage the crowd the night of the event. One of the bartenders, Elle, was also super cool and vibed with our group. As mentioned, this is a great place to host a gathering or party of any sort. Order at the bar. You can pay on one tab or have everyone pay separately on their own tabs (I know some places have an issue with this). I wholeheartedly recommend this place for happy hour, a night out with friends, or a celebration. We will definitely be back for all of the above, and will be bringing more friends with us too! read more

This place is so cute! I'll definitely be back as it gives, vibey work from home feels. You can grab a delicious glass of wine, a cup of coffee or an empanada all in one spot. When I went, it was in the afternoon, and I don't think they were expecting a rush, so service was slow. However, everyone was very nice and I really enjoyed this place overall. read more

This place is great. They have a good amount of tables and outdoor space (including outdoor games). They also have a great happy hour. The space itself is nice and has a great atmosphere. They have plants hanging from the ceiling as well as a faux plant wall. The bartenders were great. They were attentive and were happy to answer questions and were helpful when recommending drinks. Their Old Fashion was one of the best ones I've had yet. You could really taste the citrus. The Eternal Bloom was also good. It was refreshing and to me had a coconut taste to it. But my favorite was the Wildfire. Even though it had habanero it wasn't too spicy and had great flavors. We didn't see the food truck there the day we went. They currently don't have permits to serve beer on tab until sometime in August, but they did offer plenty of canned/bottled beer (they also sell buckets of beer). We'd definitely recommend this place and will be coming back! read more

I came here to celebrate a friend's birthday and I was really impressed with this place. It is located right off Houston Ave, close to Washington Ave. Prior to coming, I was slightly dreading coming into the Downtown/Heights area because parking is always atrocious in the area. I was pleasantly surprised when I rolled up and there was an almost empty lot with spots available. That's a big plus in this area. I drove around the block just to check out the area and I saw there is plenty of street parking available if their lot is full. The bar itself isn't large, but they have a nice sized patio or "garden" as they like to call it. They also have a space with turf for a little beer pong and corn hole action. Customer service was outstanding from the minute we walked in until we left. My friend reserved tables and the staff was so helpful. Though it's called a beer garden, I would classify this place as more of a cocktail lounge. They got the beers, but not a huge selection and if I remember correctly, they weren't on tap at the time we went. Their selection consists mostly of popular big brand beers with a few local brewery offerings. They have wine too which you can buy by the glass or bottle. It looked like a decent selection to me. Most of my crew partook in their impressive cocktail offerings. They have a fully stocked bar so you can get your favorites here, but they had quite a few of their own concoctions that really hit the spot. I told the bartender what I like and he suggested I go with the Blueberry Buzz. It was a gin drink with blueberry jam, lemon and honey. It had a silky mouth feel and was very refreshing on that hot summer day. It seemed to be a crowd favorite too. I then had to see if they did favorite drink, an old fashioned, right. That they did. As of the time we went, food was not yet on menu, but they were working on getting the proper permits to get food to their customers. Overall, this was a very cool spot that I can see myself coming back to. I definitely want to check out their coffee options as well. I will be back. read more

A small joint with a nice groove. I've been out here under different names in the past. Unbeknownst to me, I ended up here again! It was a themed birthday party. Thirty too wild! On a Saturday, it was a little slow besides our group. That made parking easy! It's a smaller lot, but we didn't have an issue. Not sure where to go if it gets full. Uber might be your friend. The staff were super cool, especially since someone dressed up as a whole-ass lion. People be cray. Other members of the animal Kingdom were also in attendance. We had a couple folks bring dogs through that weren't part of our group. They politely allowed the lion to stay without barking or freaking out. It was very nice of them. The drinks were pretty good but they tended to be a little on the sweeter and softer side. The closest thing to a stiff drink was probably their version of the old fashioned. But it was still a little sweet and soft for my preferences. But the staff was absolutely fantastic handling all of the orders coming through, and managing our chaotic group of animal enthusiasts. I would say that the name of the joint is a little misleading. It didn't seem like they had a lot of beer available, so much as cocktails. So unless they start putting in more taps with more cool things on it, it's a tad bit off from what one might expect, especially with so many competing breweries and beer gardens nearby. Overall a great time and I understand this place is pretty new, so I'd like to go back again sometime when they get settled in to see how they do. They definitely allow you to host a great birthday party! read more

Great atmosphere and location. We met up with friends and were able to enjoy the outdoor patio; nice patio swings, outdoor space for the kids, and outdoor tvs to watch the Texans game. Food and drinks were great. We ordered the midnight zing (my favorite) and the wildfire (spicy). The food was delicious: plantain chips and chimichurri, empanadas, and Latino chicken sandwich The place was very relaxed and inviting, and we plan on going back read more

Not worth your time. Dog friendly but only on the patio. Not enough fans way too hot outside. Go Eureka Heights instead!

This place is rocking! Great place to pop in for coffee or a drink with my dog! Tonight I got a free drink from Chewy for bringing my dog. And she enjoyed a pup cup. I enjoyed the blueberry cocktail made by the charming bartender, Dulce. It's a solid spot for morning coffee as well. Outdoor heaters take off the chill and fans for the hot days. read more

Botanic Beer Garden - My cocktail and my dog - Beer Gardens Near Me - Houston, Texas

Ultra hip chill vibe and a ton of parking. Got here early meeting someone and wanted to do bit of work before he showed up. The music has a chill funky kind of mellow modern jazz vibe; all acoustical no words. Super cute place and they have games you can play as well as 2 types of outdoor seating. Would also be a good place for a date night because you can hear yourself think and talk. The music is loud enough to groove by but not so loud it drones everything out. This place is its own vibe! Will have food on-site soon. Only drawback 2 private bathrooms so could be a long line when it's packed. The whole place is reserved inside tonight so maybe call ahead before you come just to make sure seating is available. Ton of seating outside and none of that is reserved but it looks like it's going to rain today and super hot so not the best bet. Now here's the best part... the drinks.. saved the best for last. The drink menu has some new fusion style fancy drinks that I've not had anywhere else and even the happy hour menu includes some interesting drinks. Staff are super nice and chill; are letting me and my friend order in food since it's closed tonight. Highly recommend checking this place out - it's going to become the "go-to" place soon for a lot of folks. I can see that coming ;) read more

I really wanted to love this place, especially since it's walking distance from my house, but after three visits under the new ownership, I won't be back. The biggest issue is the "beer garden" claim. Their CO2 system has been broken for weeks, resulting in flat beer. The worst part? They know it and still try to serve it. On my last visit, I had to stop the server mid-pour to ask if the CO2 was fixed, and they gave me the 6/7 hand thing, so I said no thank you. They should not be selling beer that way. The seating situation is equally frustrating. Despite having a group of five ready to spend money, every large table was occupied by a single person with a laptop and an empty coffee cup. Management seems content letting "campers" take up prime real estate without making any purchases, while paying customers are forced to stand. Service is also a major letdown. I counted five staff members behind the bar chatting with each other while ignoring a line of customers waiting for drinks. We ended up leaving after one round and spent $400 at a nearby competitor instead. If you need a quiet place to sit with a laptop for four hours on one cup of coffee, this is your spot. If you actually want a lively atmosphere with quality adult beverages and attentive service, go elsewhere. I'll be waiting for the next set of owners to try their hand at this space. read more

The place is top notch. I met some friends there to catch up over cocktails and dinner and it was awesome. The Strawberry fields cocktail was perfect and we had delicious empanadas and a chicken sandwich for dinner. I will definitely be back. It was a perfect night to drink & be merry on the outdoor patio. read more

Randomly I stop here for some food and a drink, and for my surprise I found my new spot. Service was great, all the staff was great, amazing food loved the drinks. Special shoutout to Monserrat. I will definitely be back, hopefully this Sunday for the Super Bowl, and hopefully they will play the sound cause I'm looking forward to watch the halftime show. read more

We visited around 4:00pm on a Saturday to catch a World Cup game. We sat inside because it was hot (92F). It was not busy. All TVs were tuned to the game but the speakers were playing chill music. Guess the place is trying to satisfy the internet surfing coffee drinkers and alcohol drinking game watchers at the same time. We would have preferred to hear the game. Ordered from the bar since there is no table service. Had to go to the bar to get a menu. The menu had not been updated for recent changes to the beers on offer (several True Anomaly offerings no longer available after the brewery went out of business recently). The waitstaff at the bar were always readily available to take orders but did not venture away from the bar to ask if you wanted a refill, so lots of walking to and fro to the bar, even though it was very quiet. Asked one bartender for an order of appetizer plaintain chips, waited 15 minutes, then asked another bartender about the plaintain chips. Ended up with two orders of plaintain chips delivered with the rest of our food 30 minutes after our initial food order. The food when it eventually came was above average to good. The price per beer was $7-8, for which you would hope that the service is premium as that is an above average price to pay at happy hour for a draft pint. The service could have been much better, we were disappointed. Next time we'll go somewhere the waitstaff is a little more active and motivated and the price is more reasonable. We were there last weekend and had a better experience; now we feel like there are better places to spend our money and will not likely return. read more

Botanic Beer Garden - Iced caramel latte with cold foam - Beer Gardens Near Me - Houston, Texas

For our weekly Yappy Hour, dogs Stewart and Luna enjoyed a lovely fall evening on the comfy patio. The only thing that truly matters at a bar is the drinks, and our were good! Stiff gin and tonic and margaritas. The bartender was so considerate because one margarita was too slushy so she gave a small discount, her idea--we didn't complain! The other factors that matter to my group of Women of a Certain Age: chairs with backs, dogs allowed, decent parking, and not a chimney stack of smokers. Missing from our list: food truck or a kitchen, but the sweet bartender promised one is coming soon. No beer on tap yet, but also assured this in the works. read more

This place is great. We tried some savory food while sipping on some delicious hand crafted cocktails and watched the Texans game on their TV screens. It was a great time. I highly recommend Midnight Zing and Wildfire cocktails and the empanadas and Latino Chicken sandwich. You won't be disappointed This place is a 10/10. read more

Definitely check this bar out! They do fresh fruit juice cocktails and they are amazing. I had a lavender French 75 and a Pandan-lada. The latter is one of the best cocktails I've ever had. Not too sweet but the best coconut flavor. We have also had their espresso martinis on past visits. They have great espresso so their coffee cocktails are on point. Nice seating both inside and out. Bartenders are friendly and willing to let you try some of the juices. read more

Just a bad first impression. My fiancé and I ordered two drinks, and we were told they would bring them to us at our table outside. After about 20 minutes, we decided to check in. I went inside and asked the bartender who clearly looked surprised and immediately remembered she had not made our drinks. She immediately began to make our drinks while I waited inside. After seemingly finishing our drinks, she referred to her phone and seemed quite frazzled. She told me she could bring them outside and I clarified that I did not mind waiting to take them myself, considering the last promise to bring them outside did not play out. She assured me she would bring them outside promptly and everything would be all right. After another 15 minutes, my fiancé went inside to cancel the order. When she canceled the order, they seemingly thought it was because we did not want the drinks anymore when in fact, we had waited nearly 40 minutes for two cocktails and simply just wanted to go about our day. She saw two cocktails that seemed to be ours on the bar, but at this point it was too late. Us "willingly cancelling' our orders was brought up multiple times amongst the staff which negated our frustration of the actual issue, the wait time. We chose to go to another location that would serve us more promptly. From start to finish, we spent 60 minutes for plantain chips. read more

Very nice atmosphere and drink selection. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Will definitely return.

I've lived in the neighborhood since 2012 and have seen this patio bar rotate through a few different concepts, and this spot is the best yet. Cute vibe, with plenty of space inside and even more out, a plant wall and booth/highboy/bar seating. They've built out a coffee bar which is a great addition, and one of the managers said they were working on adding food soon. By far the best thing about this spot is the bartenders, both in terms of friendliness and when it comes to making a drink. Truly some of the most amazing drinks I've had, you can't go wrong. Finally, there is a neighborhood discount if you live in the area, on top of already very reasonable drink prices! Check Botanic out! read more

Supposedly there's a breakfast menu and a lunch menu, and you can't order from the lunch menu until 3pm, though that is stated nowhere on the online menu you're directed to, nor the physical menu at the front. I was there at 12:30pm, I went to order at the front as told, began speaking to a worker after she asked me if I'm ready to order, and she proceeded to just..walk awaylike mid conversation. Another girl comes up in the middle of me explaining my order and asks me to repeat because she didn't get the whole thing..well yea I thought the girl who asked me and stood readily at the kiosk was going tojust rude. My friend ordered a matcha, and they for some reason didn't call out her name to let her know as they did for the customers before, so we don't know how long it sat before my friend went up and got it, but she said it was nasty anyways. Not surprised about this place but disappointed either way. read more
